I have determined this neck is 2 1/16 where it fits into the pocket. How do I locate a body with a neck and pickguard that small?: |

If you are lucky, you find a MIJ strat (Kasuga, Jarock, Sakai or something) PROJECT with a broken neck. I've noticed that for instance the neck of my Sakai Thinline Tele and my (Korean) Vester Stage Series Tele haven the same pocket width. As I wrote before I modified my neck through blonde Jarock Strat to Superstrat Deluxe look (tortoise + gold hardware + I replace a pot or two). The original white pickguard is only suitable for certain MIJ strat replicas. Since a week ago I have a new digital calliper that can convert from mm to Inch and vice versa. so I can measure some pockets tonight when I come back from training, then you know perhaps a few suitable brands of which you could buy a project.

Hmm, the Vester pocket measures 2.185". I didn't measure the rest last night. I was too busy scoring a special Ibanez bass with a shortscale neck. I hope I can play the bass without pain again. And if not, it's still a collectible of course. Ginger |
